Engage in the discussion and share understandings about the importance and challenges of assessing fires in wind turbines and the point in a fire development to evacuate from the wind turbine
Engage in answering the questions and share understandings about:
a. the fire intensity curve and how this relates to assessing a fire in a wind turbine
b. how to assess this fire and how to act based on the assessment of the fire and at which point evacuation is necessary
ELEMENT 4.3 - FIRE CLASSES
Learning objectives:
37) The participants can describe the importance and challenges of assessing fires in wind turbines and the point in a fire development to evacuate from the wind turbine (Knowledge, basic level) 38) The participants can describe how fire extinguisher media acts to extinguish fires by considering the fire triangle (Knowledge, basic level) 39) The participants can describe the fire classes and typical extinguisher media for these classes (refer to table 4-3.7 below) (Knowledge, basic level) 40) The participants can describe typical fire extinguishing media that can be found in a wind turbine and which fire classes these can be used for (Knowledge, basic level)
The instructor shall:
Lead a discussion about the location and types of fire extinguishers found in the wind turbines where the participants work and how the media in these extinguishers act, referring to the fire triangle, to extinguish a fire
Present how fire extinguisher media acts to extinguish fires by considering the fire triangle
Present the fire classes and typical extinguisher media for these classes (refer to table 4-3.7 below)
Show examples of and present typical fire extinguishing media that can be found in a wind turbine and which fire classes these can be used for
Create an involving learning activity, where the participants can share understandings about:
a. how fire extinguisher media acts to extinguish fires by considering the fire triangle
b. the fire classes and typical extinguisher media for these classes (refer to table 4-3.7 below)
